Ligularia sagitta

Ligularia sagitta, also known as Arrowhead Ligularia, is a perennial plant species belonging to the Asteraceae family.

Traditionally, the plant has been used in herbal medicine for its anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial properties, which are attributed to the presence of sesquiterpenes, flavonoids, and phenolic acids.

The health benefits of Ligularia sagitta include its ability to alleviate respiratory issues, such as bronchitis and asthma, as well as its potential to reduce fever and alleviate headaches.

In traditional herbal preparations, Ligularia sagitta is often used in teas, infusions, and tinctures to harness its medicinal properties, although further research is needed to confirm its efficacy and safety for human consumption.
